Are you READY for TURKEY day?

These two little girls ARE! Today they made their infamous THOMAS THE TURKEYS!! A brown paper bag stuffed with newspaper, taped with duct tape and surrounded with construction paper!

A Weekend Away in Michigan on the BEACH

This past weekend, we escaped to a beach house in Michigan. While it is certainly not summer here in the Midwest, it proved to be a relaxing weekend. Too cold to hit the beach with snowflakes falling - we didn't want to get the little ones sick! No wi-fi, very little cell phone service. So what did we do? We crafted! We napped. We watched movies. We cooked and we baked. We read. We played games. We sang! And take all of this times 3 days. Here are some pictures from the weekend and while it proved to be relaxing, it was certainly RELAXING! All in all, LOVED crafting with my two ladies and loving up on them, with NO distractions! (Check out Giselle's face as we were crafting and she was mad at Isabella!) I just need to learn how to RELAX more, which I am NOT SURE is in my nature, but I still TRY!
